Hall Masso and Malu Miris Stir Fry (Dried Sprats and Banana Peppers)

Dried Sprats and Banana Peppers stir fry

In Sri Lankan cuisine, you will find we add dried sprats (haal masso) for lot of dishes. Even not as a main dish, we add few dried sprats as a flavor enhancer for some curries such as brinjal curry. Today recipe is such kind of recipe which we cook dried sprats with banana peppers (malu miris).With spicy taste of banana peppers, this sprat dish is bit spicy. But, adjust other spices and even quantity of banana peppers (malu miris) as per your taste to get mild spicy version.

Because banana peppers (Malu miris) are already hot, some they don’t add chili flakes when they cook with malu miris. But I add bit of chili flakes just to make the dish looks inviting. If not, final result will look pale in appearance. So, you can also avoid adding of chili flakes if you think this is very hot & spicy recipe.
